Answer:

  width: 15 inches; length: 20 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation tells you the product of width (x) and length (x+5) is 300, so you're looking for factors of 300 that differ by 5.

  300 = 1·300 = 2·150 = 3·100 = 4·75 = 5·60 = 6·50 = 10·30 = 12·25 = 15·20

The factors in the last pair on this list differ by 5, so we have ...

  • width = 15 inches
  • length = 20 inches

Each month cameron budgets $1040 for fixed expenses $980 for living expenses and $120 for annual expenses his annual net income
sineoko [7]
Let us first find how much he is spending every year, to do this let's find his monthly expense and multiply it by 12.


Every month Cameron spends 1040 + 980 + 120 = 2140

To find out how much he spends yearly, multiply the monthly value by 12,
2140 x 12 = 25680


This value is more than his net income so he clearly has a surplus, but to check we can subtract 129 from every month to get:

(1040 + 980 + 120 - 129) = 2011

2011 x 12 = 24132, which shows that his budget is saving 129 surplus every month. Choice B is correct.

balu736 [363]

Answer:

$1,500,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Principal = $1,000,000

Rate = 5%

Time = 10years

Interest = PRT/100

Interest = 1000000*5*10/100

Interest = 100000*5

Interest = $500,000

Amount after 10years =  $1,000,000+ $500,000

Amount after 10years = $1,500,000
